I swear these billionaires could announce they're going to start hunting us for sport and some people would still be out there defending it with they're whole chest like
"you're just mad because you can't run fast."

@jascha tbh as a nihilist I'm unsure whether it's a good or bad thing that they're creeping out of their holes - a known danger is better than an unknown one.
Still sucks this shit exists and we have to deal with it tho.

@lunte161 @jascha The philosophical difference there is that their "creeping out" is an inevitability as part of their function of "existing until there's enough of them to feel comfy enough to come out."

Them being unknown or not is just a part of the same timeline, rather than a choice between the two.

(This is my opinion on that.)

Show threadIlka 🌐May 3, 2025
@lunte161 @jascha I disagree - a known danger is only better as an unknown, if you know (how) to overcome it. If you are uncertain, both - known & unknown - give you equivalent/equal chances. If you are certain you cannot overcome or survive the known danger, you are better off to choose the unknown. It comes with the benefit of excitement & thus unleashes extra endorphines = extra energy. Out of 3 scenarios, only 1 is an option.

Of course they fucking would.
It'd be worse than that. It would be people with no money violently defending their right to hunt us for sport. SPOILER: They'd be shocked when their son or daughter or wife or husband disappeared into the "Hunting Club Network".

Of course.
